"You Were Created in My Image"

“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them” (Genesis 1:27 NIV).

I
am not a person who knows much about art, but let me tell you what I
experienced recently. I went into a local art gallery to talk to the
owner about something. As I was waiting with a friend of mine to speak
to him, we walked around the gallery and had a look at all of the
pictures that the owners wife had been painting. I was so impressed to
see how versatile she was. Not one picture was the same.

One of the
pictures really caught both of our eyes and attention. Below this
particular picture was another one which was the exact replica of the
one hanging above it, just a little bit smaller. I observed and compared
both pictures carefully and I thought, “Why does she paint two
identical pictures?”

I was puzzled until my friend revealed to me that
the larger picture was the original and the smaller one was a
lithography, a truly excellent copy of the original. I was totally
amazed; I could hardly believe it was true because for me they looked
just the same: in color, canvas, frame, just in everything.That
morning I couldn’t help but think about Jesus, our Original. When
people see you and me, do they right away think about Jesus? Can you
imagine that your actions and your nature would just automatically speak
about Jesus and point to Him? God’s heart yearns for the children of
God to be revealed in such a way! I tell you, reflect His image to the
world and you will start winning people for Jesus! It’s as simple as
that and it is how you are going to bring in the harvest in the most
powerful and authentic way!Have a wonderfully blessed day!Suzanne Tanner
